DB2 FOR LUW / DB2FORLUW / 970 - DB2

When creating a new database through the Control Center, the 
Control Center is currently hard coding the container page size 
for a tablespace to be 4KB.  This is true even if you specified 
a total pagesize of 8K, 16K or 32K for example. 
. 
This APAR will correct the Control Center's "CREATE DATABASE 
WIZARD" so that it takes into consideration the pagesize of 
the database when building a container.

Users Affected:  Control Center users. 
Problem Description:  The "CREATE DATABASE" wizard in the 
DB2 Control Center is hard coding the container pagesize for a 
tablespace to be 4KB even if a total pagesize of 8KB or higher 
was specified.

When using the "CREATE DATABASE WIZARD" with the Control Center 
specify a size that is a portion of what is specified for the 
database pagesize.  For example, if the database pagesize is 
8K and you want a 20MB container size, use 10MB as the container 
size in the Control Center.  You can also use the "CREATE 
TABLESPACE WIZARD" as that takes the pagesize of the database 
into consideration.
